Latest news and updates about the Braves
Thursday night was defined by late comebacks, with all four games having the winner decided by runs in the final half of their contests. Tate Southisene continues to make an impact for Rome and had a big triple off of the center field wall for his 31st extra base hit of the season. Unfortunately in […]
Happy Friday A’s fans! The first half officially wraps up on Sunday for the mid-season All-Star Break. The Athletics were one of three teams to have three starters selected for Tuesday’s All-Star Game, along with the Atlanta Braves (2) and the Los Angeles Dodgers (3). Pretty awesome considering how things have gone for the Green […]
For several years, the Braves farm system has been ranked among the worst in baseball — which is admittedly pretty ironic, considering they’ve continued to produce highly productive young players at an alarming rate. The overall depth, particularly at the lower levels, just wasn’t there. That’s no longer the case. Eric Hartman has taken the […]
Bats were hot on Thursday, as hitters around the league combined for 39 homers and a .185 isolated power. Tigers rookie Eduardo Valencia went deep in his very first big league at-bat, while Mike Yastrzemski hit a ninth-inning grand slam for the Braves. Matt Olson also homered for Atlanta on the same day that he […]
You have to go all the way back to June 21st to find the last time the Braves won a series, and following a disappointing Game 1 against the Pirates on Tuesday, it looked like the drought might stretch into the All-Star break. Instead, a gem from Atlanta’s pitching staff on Wednesday set the stage, […]
The Atlanta Braves announced a roster move that reinstated OF Eli White from the paternity list and designated fellow outfielder José Azócar for assignment. The move came ahead of Thursday’s series finale in Pittsburgh. White returns to the active roster after missing the last series while on paternity leave. During his absence, Azócar filled the […]
Remember when Ozzie Albies bopped those two big fly balls just over the big wall in right field at Truist Park in order to help push the Braves to a 4-3 win over the Milwaukee Brewers? Yeah, that was back on June 20 and that was the last time the Braves won a series. Ever […]
The Braves have re-signed Carlos Carrasco to a new minor league deal, according to his transactions tracker at MLB.com. The transaction logs also indicated that catcher Jair Camargo has been outrighted to Triple-A Gwinnett. Carrasco, 39, was designated for assignment earlier this week. Since then, he has cleared outright waivers, elected free agency and signed […]

It seemed another Braves game was going to come down to the wire. Although they had led since the opening inning and saw that lead grow to 6-2 in the fourth inning, it was gradually chipped away until Atlanta was clinging to a 6-5 lead over the Pittsburgh Pirates entering the ninth inning. Mike Yastrzemski […]
The Atlanta Braves are among the teams pursuing Boston Red Sox right-hander Sonny Gray, and they may have a natural advantage in landing him. Per Ken Rosenthal and Will Sammon of The Athletic , the Braves are one of several rotation-needy clubs that have reached out to the Red Sox about Gray's availability, and Rosenthal noted Atlanta stands out as an intriguing match. Why the Braves Need Him Atlanta has stayed atop the NL East despite a staggering run of pitching injuries. The Braves ar...
Somehow, someway, there are only four games left in the first half of the 2026 Braves season. Time flies when you’re having fun (except for the whole last month-plus of it all). Anyway, the Braves, who have lost four straight rubber matches, look to end that skid at Pittsburgh on Thursday at 12:35 ET. Bryce […]
Thursday's Braves-Pirates game has been delayed due to rain.
Dylan Dodd just got the Atlanta Braves out of the fifth inning with a 6-4 lead against the Pittsburgh Pirates. As it turns out, the Braves will have to wait to either hold on to or add to their two-run lead in the rubber match as the tarp has been put on the field at […]
The Braves are among the many clubs that have reached out to the Red Sox about the possible availability of right-hander Sonny Gray, per Ken Rosenthal and Will Sammon of The Athletic. Nothing is close to coming together at this time, and it’s not even fully clear Boston will end up selling ahead of the […]
The latest MLB rumors cover Corey Seager, the Atlanta Braves and the Kansas City Royals.
The Braves made a couple of notable roster moves on Thursday — one involving the major-league club, the other tied to one of their injured pitchers. Eli White has been activated from the paternity list, and in a corresponding move, José Azócar has been designated for assignment. The #Braves today reinstated OF Eli White from […]

The Atlanta Braves, who lead the NL East despite themselves and their June performance, made a roster move before today’s day game versus the Pittsburgh Pirates. The Braves welcome back Eli White back to the active roster. Eli stepped away on Monday to handle family responsibilities and will hopefully returned with the fabled “dad power” […]
With several massive holes in their rotation, the Braves have no choice but to be aggressive in their pursuit of starting pitching leading up to the trade deadline. They’ve already been linked to Tarik Skubal, and now Ken Rosenthal is reporting that they covet veteran Sonny Gray as well. “The Atlanta Braves are one of […]
There aren’t sweeping changes to the Braves’ lineup for Thursday afternoon’s series finale at the Pittsburgh Pirates. In fact, the top five hitters in the lineup are exactly the same as from Wednesday’s 3-0 win. But one non-change is a historic accomplishment. Matt Olson, batting third and playing first base, will appear in his 740th […]
For much of the first half, Eric Hartman and Tate Southisene grabbed all the headlines on the farm — and for good reason. Hartman is making history just a couple of years after being drafted in the 20th round. He secured a 20/30 first half, vaulting himself from unranked all the way to the 25th-best […]
The Braves announced Thursday that outfielder José Azócar has been designated for assignment. His roster spot goes to fellow righty-swinging outfielder Eli White, who has been reinstated from the paternity list. Azócar, 30, was only selected to the 40-man roster Monday when White went on the paternity list. He went hitless in two plate appearances […]
Since completing their home sweep of the Pittsburgh Pirates in early June, the Atlanta Braves are 8-17, winning exactly one series over that span. But they can change that tune Thursday afternoon, somewhat fittingly against the Pirates. After a beatdown loss in Game 1 and a late scoring surge in a shutout win in Game […]
I think about the 2023 Texas Rangers a lot. (Wait, isn’t this daily question post supposed to be about the Marlins? Yes, bear with me.) Not because they won the World Series. (Did they win the World Series? I have no idea.) But because of this: So, it was kind of a weird double-whammy. They […]
